Yes, I have noticed my car doing this as well, but never could figure out what it is.

Are these easy to install???

Fronts are pretty easy, rears aren't as easy but it's not rocketry.
Fronts are sealed - replace entire hub. Remove wheel, caliper, rotor, and unplug ABS sensor. 4 bolts from back hold hub to spindle, remove those and apply PB Blaster like its going out of style. Boom.
